I was given help on this 1970 125 project by this forum and thought I would show the results. Thanks for your help.

Rob,

The bike looks very nice, but there should be some things changed based on my experiences of my '69 Berkshire.

The headlight mounts on the forks, should be lowered so the headlight could be pointed down more that aiming up.

The clutch cable needs to go behind the cylinder up to the frame under the tank, so it doesn't get grabbed by branches.

The throttle needs to be turned to the rear, so the throttle cable doesn't get grabbed by branches.

Thanks for posting the pictures.
